Hi all ~

As part of the Text Analysis Pedagogy (TAP) Institute from Constellate, we are running a free webinar panel discussion with two legal experts about ChatGPT and copyright on Monday, August 5, at 11:30 am Eastern:

ChatGPT and Copyright Infringement

The New York Times initiated legal proceedings against OpenAI on December 27, 2023, accusing the company of deliberate copyright violation through ChatGPT, its generative AI product. The Times pursued more than just monetary compensation; it requested a federal court to mandate the destruction of ChatGPT and any other AI models trained on the same data. In this panel, we will discuss the implications of copyright infringement by ChatGPT and how it affects the public. We will also discuss the difficulties in defining data rights in the context of generative AI. You’ll gain understanding of the training data that large language models may lawfully use and the technological guardrails that may be necessary to avoid legal liability.

Panel:

• João Marinotti, Associate Professor of Law at the Indiana University Maurer School of Law and an Affiliated Fellow at the Yale Law School Information Society Project
• Heather Jenson, Deputy General Counsel for ITHAKA

All are welcome to attend!  You may register through the TAP Institute webinar registration form.

I hope to see you there.
